The only ones who seem to endure any length of time here, are the ones who discover the sunnier spots of Europe and manage to escape there at regular intervals.
So live in Manchester then, its a wonderful city and its hardly a great distance away.
However, this issue seems to affect us more than most (certainly of late) and Warrington is like Manhattan compared to most SL towns. So maybe there is some other reason?

Genuine question (my memory is shocking) but who has toddled off due to homesickness recently? Tom liked it here but his wife didn’t - fair enough, McGuire has gone for other reasons, Dufty apparently not keen but he’s still here, Roberts we were all glad got homesick. Vaughan is embracing the lifestyle by all accounts. Just not sure the problem is as big as we’re making out….though I’ve probably made a glaring omission.

That Greek fella, name escapes me. Billy Dropalorrapasses or something.
Inglis waited till the cheque cleared then scarpered rather than give something back via coaching or modelling expensive training tops.

And have you been to Wakefield, Huddersfield and Hull? If so, you should see where I'm coming from, as it were.

I do see where you're coming from, it's just I think you're looking through very rose-tinted specs to suggest Warrington is any better to those you mention - All are sh!tholes...
And so you aim towards the sky, And you'll rise high today, Fly away, Far away, Far from pain....
